1 Corinthians 6:1-11 - Lawsuits Between Believers
1 Dare any of you, having an affair with another, be judged by the unjust, and not by the holy ones? 2 Know ye not that the holy ones shall judge the world? and if the world be judged by you, are ye unworthy of the least judgments? 3 Know ye not that we shall judge messengers? also not only things pertaining to the cares of life? 4 Therefore truly, if ye have judgments pertaining to the cares of life, set them counted as nothing in the church. 5 For confusion I speak to you. So is there not one wise with you, who will be able to judge between his brother? 6 But brother with brother is judged, and this by the unbelieving.
7 Therefore truly, already is there wholly a misfortune in you, that ye have judgments with yourselves. Wherefore had ye not rather be treated ill? wherefore had ye not rather be defrauded? 8 But ye treat ill, and defraud, and that the brethren. 9 Or know ye not that the unjust shall not inherit the kingdom of God Be ye not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor sodomites, 10 Nor thieves; nor covetous, nor intoxicated, nor railers, nor rapacious, shall inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And these were some of you: but ye were washed, but ye were consecrated, but ye were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and in the Spirit of our God.
